The soldiers didn't have it as hard as Khan. They still met their fair share of resistance but no riots or violence. Some were only tasked with patrols even, which prevented them from facing Neuria's citizens in the first place.
Khan noted down everything, heard eventual comments, and gave advice when possible. Slowly, the meeting grew more relaxed and cheerful, but the late hour forced it to an end before it could progress any further.
The outcome was still favorable for Khan. Showing a more active presence in the political team was almost necessary for his goals. He had reservations about leading, but his career needed him to shoulder responsibilities to reach positions of power.
As for getting to know the soldiers, Khan opted for a professional approach. After hearing the problematic comments, a single meeting couldn't be enough, and other issues held Khan back too.
